This Hanuman temple has special significance as it is the only one in North India, where the idol of Lord Hanuman is seen in a reclining posture.
This temple situated near Allahabad Fort is a unique temple. A huge idol of Hanuman, 20 feet long and 8 feet wide can be seen in a reclining position a few feet below the ground. When the river Ganga is in spate, the temple gets submerged. According to mythology, the water level rises because the Ganga wants to touch the feet of Lord Hanuman.
